Answer: B) decrease in number of rock fragments

Explanation:

Carrying capacity is the maximum size of the population of a species that an ecosystem can handle based on the availability of resources.

A limited factor is the factor that can be an abiotic or biotic agent is likely to affect the life of the living being.

American pikas are the small rodent-like mammals. These animals are short and stout. They have big, round ears and do not have tails. They have a brown and black coloration which helps them to hide behind the rocks and camouflage the predators.

Here, the decreased in rock fragments is a limiting factor which will increase the carrying capacity of American pikas. Due to lack of rock fragments, the American pikas will not be able to hide from predators and they will die. The size of the population will become by the supportive carrying capacity.

1. How many trials did it take for half of the Virtualium atoms to decay?
Elis [28]

Answer:

Carbon-14 has a half-life of 5,730 years. Taking one atom of 14C, this will either have decayed after 5,730 years, or it will not. But if this experiment is repeated again and again, it will be seen that the atom decays within the half life 50% of the time.

How does DNA code for traits
trasher [3.6K]

The sequence of nucleotides in DNA genes determines the order of amino acids in a protein. This is the direct connection between your genes and your traits. The mechanism is a two-step process. First an enzyme transcribes a gene to an intermediate biochemical called ribonucleic acid, or RNA.

Describe how alveoli are adapted for gas exchange( 4 marks)​
SashulF [63]

Answer:

they give the lungs a really big surface area. they have moist, thin walls (just one cell thick) they have a lot of tiny blood vessels called capillaries.

The walls of the alveoli are only one cell thick. This makes the exchange surface very thin - shortening the diffusion distance across which gases have to move. Each alveolus is surrounded by blood capillaries which ensure a good blood supply.Adaptations of the alveoli:

Thin walls - alveolar walls are one cell thick providing gases with a short diffusion distance. Moist walls - gases dissolve in the moisture helping them to pass across the gas exchange surface. Permeable walls - allow gases to pass through.
